Objective:To investigate the role of interstitial cells of cajal(ICC) in the pathogenesis of HD through observing the distribution of the cells in normal colon and HD's different segments.Methods:The aganglionic、transitional and dilated segments were collected in operations from 25 children with Hirschsprung’s disease.Another 6 normal segmengts were also collected.Each sections was stained by c-Kit immunohistochemistry.The distribution of the interstitial cells of Cajal was observed by light microscope.Results:The ICC in aganglionic segments of colon from Hirchsprung’s disease were decreased significantly and statistically than that in dilated and normal colon.Moreover,whole mount preparations showed that,not only the number of ICC-IM was decreased down,but also the branches of ICC-IM and the cellular network were also broken down.Conclusion:The pathogenesis of HD is related to the abnormal distribution of ICC,which lead to or aggravate the bowel spasm in HD.

Objective To investigate the effect of gastric capsule combined with psychological intervention on immune function and quality of life in patients with advanced gastric cancer.Methods A total of 130 patients with advanced gastric cancer were enrolled in this studyfrom July 2014 to August 2016 in our hospital,andrandomly divided into two groups.Twogroups were treated with chemotherapy,andobservation group was treated anotherwithWeinaian capsule.The immune indexes, quality of life and side effects of the 2 groups before and after chemotherapy were compared and analyzed.Results After chemotherapy,CD4+、CD8+、CD4+/CD8+、CD3+ and NKlevel of observation group were better than that of control group(all P<0.05).After chemotherapy,SF-36 score of physical function, health status, vitality, emotional and mental health scores of observation group werebetter than that of control group(all P<0.05).During chemotherapy,proportion of gastrointestinal reaction and liver and kidney injury of observation group were 35.38% and 21.54%,lower than that of control group 63.08% and 40.00%(all P<0.05).Conclusion Weinaian capsule can improve immunologic function of advanced gastric cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy and reduce adverse reactions,so as to improve the quality of life of patients.
